The word 'no' comes to mind.

Could you imange cleaning break dust off of those? You would have to take the rim off to clean the back!

uhh....if you click on the link...they are the first SPOKELESS rim...at least the first that has been produced. The site says it's a layer of hella strong polycarbonate plastic bullshit. It goes hub, window, rim, tire...there's nothing put plastic in place of where the spokes should be.
